Hi,

> Patch updated.  The relevant section now reads
> 
>   MPlayer used to be a Movie and not a Media player. This is slowly
>   changing and MP3, OGG VORBIS, ASF (WMA), MP4 and WAV are currently
>   supported. Nevertheless the main focus is still video, so you may
>   prefer to use alternatives like xmms or mpg123 instead. 

also should add some notes about possible mpg vs. mp3 missdetection.
as mplayer is movie player, it prefers mpg to mp3 in (not so) rare cases
when it cannot decide the format, and it may results in broken playback
or nothing. sorry, we cannot support all mp3s, without dropping the
support for broken mpeg video files.

users must accept this, and use force demuxer option (-demuxer ?) in
these cases.
